    Actually, it is difficult to tell from the overall shape how much weight is on the coupling, and it may well have most of the mass concentrated at the back. Note that there has been a trend in recent years to move the axles back on most caravans, while still managing sensible nose loading.

    It could be worse ... my brother sent me this one last night.

    Custom built carvan | Caravan | Gumtree Australia Cardinia Area - Pakenham | 1087543952

    Look where the axles are ... and how far apart they are.... Imagine trying to tow it ... It might work if it's a 5th wheeler ... but as it is that sucker would have to have at least 1ton on the drawbar

    seeya,

    Yikes! Unfinished project - probably because he's realised he'll never be able to tow it legally with anything in Aus. loks like it weighs about 4 tonne as well...
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    If I remember right the Yanks only had the two bombs and if the Japs had not surrendered after the second detonation then it would have taken months for them to build more bombs and the invasion more than likely would have had to go ahead anyway. The Allies were lucky I reckon.
